ORDER ADOPTING MAGISTRATE JUDGE’S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
______________________________________________________________________________
Before the Court are the United States Magistrate Judge’ Report and Recommendation
that Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss be denied (D.E. # 24) and the Magistrate Judge’s Report and
Recommendation that Plaintiff Debbie Wright (“Plaintiff”) be sanctioned by being required to
pay the costs related to Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss (D.E. # 27). First, on March 24, 2014,
the Magistrate Judge recommended that the complaint should not be dismissed at this time and
that the less severe sanction of attorney’s fees would be better suited to address Plaintiff’s
violations. The Magistrate Judge then entered his second Report and Recommendation on April
1, 2014. That Report recommends that Plaintiff be required to pay Defendants a total of
$1,050.00, the amount of the total expenses incurred by Defendants in preparing their Motion to
Dismiss.
Objections to the Report and Recommendations were due within fourteen (14) days of the

1

entry of the Reports, making the objections to the first Report due on or before April 7, 2014 and
the objections to the second Report due on or before April 15, 2014. Neither party has filed
objections within the time permitted.
Having reviewed the Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation de novo, the
parties’ briefs, and the entire record of the proceeding, the Court hereby ADOPTS the Magistrate
Judge’s Reports. The Court will not dismiss Plaintiff’s Complaint at this time. However,
Plaintiff is ordered to pay $1,050.00 to Defendants for the costs they incurred in filing their
Motion to Dismiss.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
